"Don't open the door yet. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Li Haoran glared at Xiao Qiang and said.

Xiao Qiang pursed his lips, walked over and pulled the door open, and sure enough, he saw Meng Xinlan standing outside the door.

At the base, Meng Xinlan is usually wearing a military uniform, and today is no exception. Although it is winter and the weather is cold, this base belongs to the depths of the basement, and the temperature is controlled by the air conditioning system all year round, so the military uniform is not thick.

Looking at the woman in front of him, Xiao Qiang nodded at her, which was regarded as a hello.

Meng Xinlan looked at Xiao Qiang with a pair of bright big eyes, and there were many complicated things in his eyes.

Xiao Qiang hurriedly looked away, not daring to look at her.

No matter what, he owed Meng Xinlan a little bit, and he always felt a little sorry in his heart.

"Hello chief. ”

It wasn't until Xiao Qiang took the initiative to look away that Meng Xinlan let him go, turned to look at Li Haoran, and saluted and asked for instructions.

"Xiao Meng is here. Very good, this time you go to Japan, Xiao Qiang will be responsible for your safety, when you go out, it is in that special country in Japan, the two of you have to take care of each other and support each other. Li Haoran said to Meng Xinlan.

Meng Xinlan glanced back at Xiao Qiang, and then said, "Yes, I obey the order." ”

Xiao Qiang grinned when he heard this, this woman was still the same as more than a year ago, stubborn. What does it mean to obey orders, the implication is that you are not very happy to partner with me, grandma, if it weren't for the fact that you are a beauty, Lao Tzu would not be willing to go to Japan.

Coming out of the base, Xiao Qiang sat in Meng Xinlan's car, and Meng Xinlan drove the car.

Xiao Qiang sat in this car a lot, when he and Meng Xinlan pretended to be a couple, the two came together every day, and it was often Xiao Qiang's car.

Since the engagement banquet, Xiao Qiang and Meng Xinlan have rarely met, especially in the past year or so, they have never seen each other at all, plus because of that incident, now sitting in the car, Xiao Qiang also feels that the atmosphere is a little dull and a little embarrassing.

"Ahem, what's that, Meng Lao's body is okay, right?"

Xiao Qiang really couldn't find any other topics, and he was also really grateful to Meng Lao and cared about Meng Lao's body. Moreover, this time the two are going to Japan and want to stay together for a while, so they can't just get along so awkwardly, which is not conducive to future cooperation, so he took the initiative to alleviate this atmosphere.

"Grandpa's health is very poor, and it may only be a few months. I originally resigned to take care of his old man at home, thinking of accompanying him through the last part of his life, but suddenly I was invited by the Japanese side, Li Lao asked me to go, and my grandfather insisted on letting me go. Meng Xinlan said softly.

Xiao Qiang was silent, he wanted to go to the Meng family to see Meng Lao, but thinking of his current relationship with the Meng family, he was embarrassed to speak. Moreover, the old man is in very bad health now, and his mood is the most important thing, and if he is angered by his own presumptuous request to see him, is it not a sin?

Meng Xinlan glanced sideways at Xiao Qiang, and then did not speak. After the car entered the city, he walked along the road that Xiao Qiang was once familiar with, Xiao Qiang had doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask.

When the car stopped outside the Meng family's compound, Xiao Qiang finally understood what Meng Xinlan meant.

"Grandpa said before that he wanted to meet you, and since you're back this time, let's go and meet you. Meng Xinlan said to Xiao Qiang expressionlessly: "His health is getting worse and worse, and now his wishes, his family will try their best to meet them." ”

Xiao Qiang glanced at the door of the Meng family's compound and said with a wry smile: "No one will give me a black roll, right?"

Meng Xinlan bit his lip lightly and snorted.

Xiao Qiang secretly twitched at the corner of his mouth, Nima, his mouth is cheap again, isn't this deliberately sprinkling salt on people's wounds.

"What's the matter, where did the momentum of risking your life and quitting the marriage go? I didn't see you a little afraid of our Meng family at the beginning, why are you still scared now?" Meng Xinlan looked at Xiao Qiang and said with a sneer.

Really!

Xiao Qiang secretly scolded himself for being cheap, and in the face of Meng Xinlan's complicated eyes that even he, a veteran of the love field, couldn't understand, he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, how could he offend a woman, and she was such a beautiful woman.

"I'm sorry!"

Xiao Qiang is not a hypocritical person, nor is he a person who likes his mother-in-law. It is true that Xiao Qiang was sorry for Meng Xinlan in that matter, but he was not much sorry, but he violated the original agreement, which was a little too much.

But for a girl, that matter is not just as simple as the contract being torn up by Xiao Qiang, but more importantly, the reputation.

Even after a year and a half of the incident, Xiao Qiang can still hear some rumors, all of which say that he abandoned Meng Xinlan after playing it. Therefore, for Meng Xinlan, this is a reputational injury.

Xiao Qiang felt that he owed her a word of sorry, owed her an explanation, he pretended to be crazy and stupid before, but now in the face of her questioning, facing the gate of the Meng family, thinking of the kindness and love of the old man in the gate of the Meng family, he said these three words.

Listening to Xiao Qiang's earnest, sincere, and sincere words utter these three words, Meng Xinlan felt a sense of loss in his heart for no reason. She also thought that what she wanted was Xiao Qiang's three-word apology, and what she wanted was Xiao Qiang's explanation and explanation for that matter. But now, she realizes that this is not what she wanted.

What do you want?

Meng Xinlan looked at Xiao Qiang deeply, did not accept Xiao Qiang's apology, but did not continue to dwell on this issue, took a deep breath, looked away, and said, "Let's go, grandpa should be awake at this time." We...... I'll have to catch a plane later. ”

Meng Xinlan's attitude made Xiao Qiang slightly stunned, but since the other party did not continue to dwell on this issue, he was also relieved.

It's just that, looking at the gate of the Meng family, Xiao Qiang didn't walk in.

A year and a half ago, he silently told himself in his heart that the Meng family would see him again, no, he wouldn't see him!

Now that he's back, what is it, is it a compromise?

He has experienced a lot of things in the past year or so, especially Shi Yongxing's death, which has made his heart grow and change a lot, and he has also been relieved a lot of the Meng family's 'seeing death and not saving him', and he has seen it very openly, but there is still a hurdle in his heart to step forward.

Seeing that Xiao Qiang didn't follow, Meng Xinlan looked back at him, and also remembered the incident a year and a half ago, she bit her lip lightly, lowered her voice and said, "Just think it's me begging you once, grandpa, it's really going to die." ”

Xiao Qiang's voice and smile appeared in his mind, but after all, he relented and walked over.

The time was afternoon, and it was almost time for dinner, so although there were not many people in the Meng family's compound, some of the juniors who lived here returned home on time, and a few elders who got off work early also came back and talked in the courtyard.

When these people saw Meng Xinlan bring Xiao Qiang back, they all showed indignation, and one of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers rushed over at once, pointed at Xiao Qiang and said loudly: "What are you doing here, are you really a bully of our Meng family?"

As he spoke, the young man suddenly turned his head to look at Meng Xinlan, with a complicated look on his face, and said, "Sister Xinlan, I shouldn't have said that about you, but have you ever thought about the feelings of the rest of our Meng family?

"Brother Xiaoyi, you can't say that about Sister Xinlan. An eleven or twelve-year-old girl grabbed the young man and persuaded anxiously, but when she saw Xiao Qiang, she still showed a little hostility, and said boldly: "Our Meng family doesn't welcome you, you have hurt the Meng family, hurt Sister Xinlan, you are not a good person." ”

Regarding the attitude of these people of the Meng family towards him, Xiao Qiang had already been mentally prepared, and he didn't take it to heart, but seeing that these young juniors dared to humiliate Meng Xinlan like this, and some of the elders of the Meng family next to him even looked at Meng Xinlan with a smile, Xiao Qiang's heart was suddenly stabbed, and a feeling of déjà vu suddenly swept through his heart, and he couldn't help but look at Meng Xinlan.

Meng Xinlan was very calm, and there was no change in her expression, as if she had long been accustomed to this kind of thing, and she had long been numb and immune to the attitude of the people around her.

But the more this is the case, the more unpleasant Xiao Qiang's heart becomes. He suddenly found that the harm to Meng Xinlan caused by his original decision was not as simple as he imagined.

In my own opinion, I am just a little sorry for her violation of the previous agreement, and I only owe her a word of sorry. But in fact, that move was to step Meng Xinlan's status in the Meng family and her status in the entire capital circle into the abyss.

"Ignore them, let's go upstairs to see grandpa. Meng Xinlan was expressionless, but comforted Xiao Qiang.

Xiao Qiang's heart was moved, he took a deep breath, and followed Meng Xinlan to the upper floor.

"Slut! Brother Tao, they are really right, my Meng family has such a shameless slut!" The young man saw that Meng Xinlan was going to invite Xiao Qiang to go upstairs to see his grandfather, and he was immediately furious, and couldn't help but scold viciously.

Meng Xinlan's body trembled slightly, and her chest rose and fell violently, but she still walked upstairs firmly, in this family, as long as her grandfather is alive, she can endure it. Grandpa's health is getting worse and worse, and she doesn't want to make grandpa angry again because of this kind of thing.

Meng Xinlan didn't care, but even if he was just an outsider, Xiao Qiang couldn't stand it.

Moreover, Xiao Qiang stubbornly believes that the reason why Meng Xinlan has become a public enemy in the eyes of these people in the Meng family and has become what he is now, everything is his harm.

Xiao Qiang didn't follow Meng Xinlan upstairs, he glanced at it, and several adults had already come out around him, all watching the excitement, so his heart was even colder.

As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea.

The high-ranking family is really indifferent, ruthless and unjust!

"Old Man Meng is a hero, but he can't imagine that there will be such a ruthless waste among the descendants. Xiao Qiang grinned, and then said coldly at the young man.
